The exhibition features 200 photographs by 87 authors, selected from thousands of entries submitted by professional and amateur photographers, ethnologists, journalists, and photography enthusiasts from across the country.

In his opening remarks on Monday, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism Ta Quang Dong said Vietnam is home to 54 ethnic groups coexisting harmoniously. These groups have shaped and enriched Vietnam’s cultural identity through millennia of national development and defense, contributing to a vibrant and diverse cultural mosaic. 

The week-long exhibition underscores the Party, State, and society's commitment to preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of Vietnam’s ethnic communities.
